I didn't make it out yesterday. Was hoping to get my daughter out but she went from excited to luke warm to not really interested as the day went on. Won't push it.

Did pull a cam Saturday evening though that showed we just missed the mark 10/18...sat a stand about 150 yards away that evening. 150 yards and 2 hours. Hopefully I close the gap this season. October 18, at 2 pm and a stud is on his feet. I don’t post pics much here but hey...here’s to positive thinking! Hope we meet soon.

4:55 is a video of doe at 40 yards dropping/rolling 6* inches to avoid a luminoked arrow...

I think the best takeaway is the hunting based conclusions they made which are:

Pressured Alert Deer More Likely Duck

No bow or crossbow beats an alert deer at 40+

Shots inside 20 safest bet regardless

He is a new one this year, but one I suspect we have pics of in prior years. Shows up mid Oct and pops through time to time in Nov. Pretty sure he's here for the ladies, LOL.

Have a few others to share, but not a fan of posting them online before they are dead. Might be "safe" here. FB definitely not as people know some of these bucks....

Not sure I'd have posted his pick if he was on our land.... What an absolute stud!!! But you guy's are having a dream season out there!! This weekend should be perfect!  Hope the next picture we see of this deer, is with you in it too!  Best of luck Brad! You definitely have what it takes to pull it off!  Best of luck my friend.

This particular buck is standing at the location you sat last year. 20 yards, left hand shot. Don't even need to stand up on the ladder stand. Midday in mid Oct!

Yup...I can see it now, right at the base of that knob, going towards the trail!! It's just below where I had that 120" eight point coming in! When I was there last year, on the last weekend in October, the rut sign was exploding! And bucks were seen all over that property! You got this buddy, get it done!!!

Things are happening. Got a nice Buck on cam last night and I found a 3 foot wide new scrape, made last night. I am currently moving a stand by it, down wind. Same spot I killed the big 4 year old in 2016. In for lunch now and then I am hunting this spot till dark. It is the same area I saw the deer come out from last night from the thick bedding in the neighbors clear cut zone. I also keep getting a big yote on cam. This one is not shy unlike previous animals I have caught on camera. The deer in the pics here is likely the one making the scrapes along a ridge I am hunting. This ridge is downwind of the prevailing wind and so sees a lot of traffic.

That's one hell of a property!!. It's amazing how different the property's differ just from the east of NY to the west. We get some big deer but not near the numbers you guys have! Knowing other people from near rochester they all say the same thing and have similar pics. If it wasn't suck a long ridea I would be looking for lease properties out there that's for sure!!

You are absolutely right Matt!  Lots of buttheads in our area, that's for sure! Especially the ones who cruise the roads at night, and brag about the big bucks they shoot! Too many of them!!! Not sure how they continue to get away with it, when everybody knows what they do???

 We gotta get together soon to compare notes!

You going to the club meeting tonight?

I do know a great lawyer!  Lives out in Webster.  :rolleyes:  Be a good reason to get him to come hunt with us! But we got nothing compared to what he's used to!!!

Something weird is afoot. I have noticed a major uptick going on 3 or 4 years now in terms of lung infections. I am shaking something off myself now and I had a very bad dose 2 years ago. I rarely got sick before this and now I get something in the lungs every year. When I was teaching the students were often down with respiratory issues. 

The last 4 years I have been getting horrible bronchial infections come October. I am currently on Prednisone...antibiotic.....and a heavy dose of Albuterol. Hit so hard last weekend I skipped the whole northern Muzzleloader season and almost skipped Saturdays rifle opener.

I'm making a management call and directing Phade to stop posting up deer porn! That shit is gonna get me fired! I look at that and leave work to go sit in stand all day every day instead of going to work! Then I realize all i have on cams is 1.5 year olds.

 

Hangs head in shame...…...

      Hello everyone I’m currently looking at a house in deposit ny I’ve been deer hunting for many year mainly in Columbia and Greene county never been to Broome county. Before anything I was just curious how is the hunting there ? I know there aren’t any antlered restrictions in Broome but are there monsters out there or is it mainly just small spike? If anyone from that county or knows about deposit and broome county would get back to me i would appreciate it. Hope everyone hunting today catch a big one thanks.

      The procedure below to carry the bow is detailed below:
      You have to use a cotton towel or something similar. You have to wrap it around the bowstring. Doing so ensures that it will not cause an injury with the bowstring coming in contact with your body. It will not be that sharp either. Once you cover the bowstring with the towel, you have to wear it like a sling. So that it will not fall away from your body. The best way to cover the bowstring is to use a large enough towel. You can wrap it around twice as well. When making a sling out of the cotton towel, you have to ensure that you tighten it to get a snug fit. In that case, it will not slip away. Consequently, it will remain in place. When using this technique to carry a bow on your back, it is essential to practice before going in the wilderness. Only when you can move briskly and without noise using the scanning mechanism should you go ahead with it. To remove the bow, you have to hold it at the bottom. After that, you have to slip it over your head as well as arm. Doing so ensures that you can remove it quickly. When trying to focus on a prey, you need to remove the bow quickly. The technique for removal that we have highlighted above can certainly help you do so.

      Just want to relay an experience I had this weekend regarding hunting regulations and other hunters.
      I've had several  hunter's tell me last weekend(10/12/2020) that muzzleloader was open, it is not. I also had two other hunters last weekend confront me as to why my son was carrying around a rifle and hunting deer. I calmly explained the youth weekend and the rules around it. After that everything was cool and we continued our hunt.
      I know at the end of the day we're all trying to participate in a sport we love and maybe harvest some game. My thought is to just make sure you're up on your local hunting regulations. Not just so you are within the rules, but also so you can assert your right to be where you are, hunting the way you're hunting.
      I know when I have been operating outside of the regulations I have appreciated a person respectfully correcting my ignorance and I try to pay it forward by being informed and respectfully educating when required.
      Thanks for listening, off my SB...

      Hello,
      I am in the process of purchasing my first rifle to go hunting deer for the first time.  However, I have received contradicting information regarding the types of rifles that are legal.  Based on what I have read, it appears that I am able to use a bolt-action rifle with a pistol grip and a detachable magazine which holds 10 rounds.  However, I have been told that this is not the case. I can't seem to find where this is stated.  Can any one here provide me with some insight into this? I'd really appreciate it.
      Thanks in Advanced,
      Alfredo
